What's planned and what happens aren't exactly ever similar. I come from a world where the government decided to try and make lists like this. Then they started herding those of us who were different into camps. Those that resisted, were killed. I grew up completely stripped of my own free will thanks to mind control drugs.
Excuse me for not really looking forward to a repeat.
That's true, and I come from a world where there was a list that a private company intended to use for that same purpose. When I found out I could fly, I was so convinced if I went public about my powers they would round us up and put us all in labs. I promise I will not let that happen here, and even if the promises of a politician don't mean that much to you, at least give me a chance to prove to you that I'm not heading us all towards some kind of dictatorship.
